Yeah! We finally have interet again. During one of the storms a couple weeks ago, an electrical surge came through the cable line and took out a bunch of equipment. Curtis (aka Mr. IT) thoroughly inspected our home network, and got to work. Unfortunately, each time he fixed or replaced something, he discovered another piece needed fixed or replaced. So with a couple trips to Mediacom and special orders from NewEgg, we are finally back in business. I never realized how much I rely on email and this blog to stay in touch with the outside world.

So....what's been happening around here? Well....

• Max is stretching out (his limbs are SOOOO long and skinny) and starting to show us his personality. He loves his daddy - smiles whenever he hears Curtis' voice. Last night Max only woke once during the night!!! It was really nice to get a 5 hour stretch of sleep instead of just 2-3 hours.
• Jack loves to dance. I'll try to add a video I captured of him - he does the funniest thing with his hips. Whenever Curtis asks him if he wants to go to the "tool store" (Lowe's), Jack runs to get his shoes. His favorite phrases are "Where'd it go?" and "Wait!"
• Happy 10th Birthday Trystin! We got a DQ ice cream cake Thursday to celebrate. He spent today watching his Ben 10 Season 3 DVD and playing Hulk & Ironman on the Wii. Tomorrow we go for pizza and bowling.
• Happy 3rd Anniversary to Curtis & me! Yes, it has really been 3 years. Curtis brought home the most beautiful flower arrangement ever for me. And I must say, he looks extrememly handsome in the new polos I bought for him. We are going to try to go out to Red Lobster one of these nights. But with 3 boys and the addition project, who knows how that will work out.
• As for the house, Curtis will probably start shingling this weekend. I'm hoping I have enough Gatorade mix to keep up with him since it's supposed to be in the 90's with high humidity. It'll be so nice to have the roof complete so we don't have to worry so much about all the rain we've had this season.
• Speaking of rain, our yard is a swamp. We've developed a low spot by the driveway that constantly oozes water. Several spots in the field cannot be mowed because we can't get the mower through the soggy ground. And about a week ago, the creek flooded for the 3rd time this summer.

For the fans of our pictures and videos, I'll get those added later this weekend. So stay tuned - I'm back on the net!
